The White Lion Hotel

The Best Western White Lion is part of the leading, privately owned, Thorpeness and Aldeburgh Hotels Group so you can be assured of the highest standards in hospitality, service and value for money.

The Hotel overlooks Aldeburgh's shingle beach and its 38 bedrooms are cosy and inviting, some with sea views as far as the eye can see.

Restaurant
Head Chef, Patrick Neal, creates delicious menus inspired by the wealth of fantastic fresh Suffolk produce so readily available. Guests have the choice of dining in the informal beach-facing Bar or the newly refurbished oak-panelled Restaurant 1563.

Bar
The Bar is well stocked with a variety of real ales and an interesting selection of quality wines, designed to complement a variety of meals and occasions.

Weddings
What could be more unique and magical than a wedding by the sea in Suffolk? The Hotel offers a stunning alternative to conventional wedding and reception venues and is licensed to hold civil ceremonies.

Please feel free to telephone our wedding Co-ordinator on 01728 452720 if you would like further information on any of our services.

Meetings and Conferences
If you are planning a meeting or conference and need to escape from the frenetic pace of the office environment, why not seek inspiration from our venue on the Suffolk Heritage Coast? Here you will be inspired and invigorated by the fresh smell of sea air and experience guaranteed calm within a professional and relaxed business environment. What's more, you'll find our attitude to service and flexibility is altogether different.
At The White Lion we are passionate about our cooking. We specialise in fish and seafood and you will find fresh produce from local suppliers used in our home-cooked food which quite literally feeds the mind. So, after a hearty meal, what better way to burn off the calories or clear the mind than an invigorating walk along the beach, a row on the Meare, a game of tennis or a round of golf on the challenging 18-hole course at our sister Hotel in Thorpeness?
Contact us now to discuss your requirements.

Parties and Special Occasions
If you have a Birthday, anniversary or other special occasion to celebrate, why not stay which us? The views from our sea-facing bedrooms are beautiful. We can arrange Champagne on ice for your arrival, a beautiful bouquet of flowers or a delicious box of chocolate. Just ask us and we will organise it for you.

With its warm atmosphere, log fires and fantastic food, The Best Western White Lion Hotel is a wonderful hideaway from which to enjoy the natural tonic of a seaside holiday.
